That's gives the same as "fix it" ;-). Can we phrase it in end-user observable terms, for example, "instead of grabbing the default remote of the superproject repository, ask the default remote of the submodule we are going to run 'git fetch' in". It is a mere implementation detail of doing so, to call get_default_remote_submodule() instead of get_default_remote(). > 1. https://www.spinics.net/lists/git/msg462320.html Please use the URL that shows the Message-Id when referring to a message in the list archive.

Now we do. Shouldn't we clean up the child_process structure we allocated and prepared before returning like this? It would just be the matter of calling child_process_clear(&cp), perhaps? > strvec_pushl(&cp.args, remote, hex, NULL); > free(remote); Thanks.
